I HAVE heard the saying 'time flies when you're having fun'. Well, on our return from a couple of days at the coast we decided to go and have a look around the 'steam fair' in Marlborough High Street on Saturday only to be greeted with the sight of what only could be called Marlborough Mop.

We thought we had missed summer and arrived back in October.

I should imagine there was more steam coming out of local business people's ears about loss of trade than there was out of the two steam engines.
